" I am sooo sorry hon.It sounds like you are getting really burned out.I don't think you should have to leave your home,especially with a daughter who needs care.Have you considered placing him with assisted living?I know it is a difficult option,but the situation seems to be unmanageable so you need some relief.You have yourself and your daughter to care for.Sometimes we have to do things that we never thought we would do because of circumstances,and things we did'nt forsee.sometimes we really cannot do it all no matter how important it is,or how bad we wish we could.You are ill yourself and you need care too.From knowing you i can say that your a very giving and caring person.It is not uncaring to walk away from abuse,it's not selfish to be there for ourselves,and it's ok to give less.It seems that your husbands brain is just not going to allow him to reason,and this happens sometimes,especially with dementia.There are many places to turn.i will message you and give you the refs.I know of.Take care.(((hugs))),Jen "

" I am just so overwhelmed by all of this. It is also the matter of how can I leave my very sick daughter? She has been sick in bed 4 almost 6 yrs and now with a serious head injury. She can't even hold her head up, dizzy, nauseous, can't focus and even find the words to express herself. She gets very sick even riding in a car. She also has said she can't leave her Dad who is ill. The almost funny part is he could give a rats ass about her health. I am taking her to another specialist next week in Pittsburgh. It would b awesome if we lived in a calm and loving home. But that is never going to happen. I am still looking 4 a appt 4 us though. I am trying to find 1 that we can pay rent plus eat. I just keep praying PLEASE GOD GIVE ME STRENGTH TO MAKE THE DISCUSSIONS I MADE TO MAKE. PUT MOST OF ALL GIVE ME HER PAIN AND ILLNESSES. SHE HAS NOT HAD A LIFE 4 MANY MANY YRS. I AM OVERWHELMED AND VERY DEPRESSED. "
